Quality measures are tools used to measure different aspects of healthcare quality, such as processes, outcomes, patient experiences, and structures. OIDP is leading a national effort to find a useful and practical quality measure for viral hepatitis. This measure aims to enhance state quality improvement programs, potentially including a proposal for the Medicaid Adult Core Set.
